Howard Carter was a
friend of Smith Wigglesworth and Lester Sumrall. He was a leading
speaker at international Pentecostal conferences throughout
the world. Carter was most distinguished for his teaching on
the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. He was a gentle and refined
man, yet rugged when needed. A careful study of his life
reveals an educated man after God's own heart who carried a
strong passion for Jesus and a quiet sense of humor. Howard
Carter was well known for his love for God and had met many
other ministers of the Gospel. He was one of thirteen people
who signed the founding documents of the Assemblies of God
in Birmingham on February 1st, 1924. Later that same year in
May he would attend the first Assemblies of God conference
held in London. He served on the General Council of these
groups as vice-chairman from 1929-1934, and as chairman from
1934-1945. In 1921 Carter was handed over leadership of
Hampstead Bible School, originally to be on a temporary
basis until a more suitable person was available to fill the
opening. That never happened, as he held this position for
some twenty seven years. Howard Carter left the Hampstead
Bible School in 1948 and moved to the United States. He
spent the rest of his life there and began to travel
extensively as a preacher until his death in 1971.
